In the next section we elaborate on the cube 999.

What is 999 Cubed?

A cube is a three-dimensional shape with 6 equal square faces.

Hence, a cube with side length 999 has an area of 997,002,999.

The sum and the differences of two cubes, for example with side length 999 and 998, can be calculated with the following formulas:

1. a³ + b³ = (a + b) × (a² – ab + b²) ⇔ a³ = (a + b) × (a² – ab + b²) – b³
   With a = 999, b = 998 and the equivalence we get:
   (999)³ = 1997 x (999² – 999 × 998 + 998²) – 998³ = 1997 x (998001 – 997002 + 996004) – 994011992 = 1997 x 997003 – 994011992 = 997,002,999
2. a³ – b³ = (a – b) × (a² + ab + b²) ⇔ a³ = (a – b) × (a² + ab + b²) + b³
   With a = 999, b = 998 and the equivalence we get:
   (999)³ = (999² + 999 × 998 + 998²) + 998³ = 998001 + 997002 + 996004 + 994011992 = 997,002,999

As follows from (1), 999 cubed can be calculated from 998 cubed and 999 squared using the identity:

n³ = (2 × n – 1) × (n² -n + 1) – (n-1)³
(999)³ = (2 × 999 – 1) × (999² – 999 + 1) – (998)³ = 1997 × (998001 – 998) – 994011992 = 1997 × 997003 – 994011992 = 997,002,999

Using the second formula 999 cubed can be also be computed with this identity:

n³ = (n-1)³ + 3n² -3n + 1
(999)³ = 998³ + 3 × 999² – 3 × 999 + 1 = 994011992 + 3 × 998001 – 3 × 999 + 1 = 994011992 + 2994003 – 2997 + 1 = 997,002,999
